Geekbench is the only consumer usable cross-platform benchmark. It matches SPEC differences between platforms

Does it test hardware, or hardware plus software that can be different on different platforms?

  • AFAIK it's mostly self-contained outside of basics like malloc. If you have any evidence to the contrary, post it.

  • What degree of OS-indepedence do you think is reasonable to expect from a consumer-facing benchmark suite like Geekbench?
